First Robin!

We saw our first robin today!! Although our picture on the top was not as clear as the one on the bottom,(taken off the internet) and the background was snow in our picture, we still saw one!! Spring is here! The kids were SO excited! We are off to the backyard now to find more signs of Spring!

Actually I was so overcome with Spring, I rushed out and bought bedding flowers. I didn't plant them yet, but a couple of them have succumbed to the nightly cold. I left them on my patio table hoping by being off the ground, they would not be hurt. Alas, not so. It's hard to wait, isn't it? Nerm

Jamie-about linking someone: here's the way I do it.Example: type your sentence and type the name like Elizabeth. then swipe it with your mouse to highlight it. Then go up in the comment tool bar to the link symbol. Fill in the actual http: address. When you press "save" Elizabeth will be highlighted and become the link to the blog site. Hope this helps. You can practice on me if you like. Nerm

Yesterday I was praying my rosary, facing the window. We were having a horrible rain, all wind and rain. Anyway, there in the tree right outside my window a robin sat. He puffed himself all up and sat there in that horrible weather for the entire time I was praying.Robins are so fascinating! I counldn't help but think of The Secret Garden and Mary's Robin friend.

I dedicate this blog to Our Lady. May only good things come of this.

"Let no soul, even the most miserable, fall prey to doubt, for, as long as one is alive, each one can become a great saint, so great is the power of God's grace; It remains only for us not to oppose God's action." --St Faustina's Diary 283

"Lord, illumine my intellect to see the truth and give me the strength to follow it."-Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

"There are not more than 100 people in the world who truly hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they perceive to be the Catholic Church." [The Venerable and Most Reverend Fulton John Sheen]

Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.-Philippians 4:8

"All men were born to live. One man was born to die." -Fulton J. Sheen

St Michael The Archangel

St Michael the Archangel defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray, and do thou, oh prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into hell, Satan and all evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
